and the opinion of its virtue as a manure seems to be the same in virgi nia the following testimony of ita ef fect is given in taylor's arator an au thority generally respected among our farmers " the immediate benefit of gyp&um to indian coin says this writer is vastly greater than to any other crop except clover whilst its benefit to land is equally great unpluistered places left across large fields of clover have in sun dry instances produced a thii'd or fourth only of the adjoining plaistered clover unplaistered spaces across large fields of corn have been frequently visible during the whole crop producing not an equal but a considerable difference i gypsum clover and inclosing in eaepufetion have within my own knowledge doubled treb led and in a very favorable soyl quadru pled the value of laud in thy spare of twelve or fifteen years whilst the land regularly produced two exhausting crops those of corn and wheat in every lour years of the period ; and these crops were continually increasing manures no doubt are the food of land as the productions of land itself are the food of animals jboth alike languish without their respective aliments to i estore to land under cultivation an equi valent for the amount of exhaustion which each crop occasions is the way to pre vent it from wearing out forever ; and if the food thus supplied exceeds the loss of strength induced by cropping from year lo year land will obviously grow more fertile the longer it is cultivated hence the economy of manures and their judicious application are probably to be regarded as the most important subjects that can be presented before the farmer every panic le of manure saved helps to form a sinking fund to cancel those large drafts which he i3 continually making on his land hence the inesti mable advantage of living near a bed of gypsum i have before alluded to the extensive and profitable use that is said to be made of gypsum in the new-england states but there are reasons why it is still more important to us than to them lhe pe culiar fitness of their climate for grazing induces them to keep a much larger stock of cattle than we do in proportion to their farms and the length and severity of their winters compel them to keep this large stock inclosed in yards or even in stables at least twice as long at we are ac customed to do it in the colder parts of this state by these means they acquire large beds of stable manure which in the spring is carried out to enrich their lands although their farms are much smaller than ours and they accumulate much more stable manure yet they find it greatly to their advantage to send to nova scotia for plaster and to carry it over land for twenty , thirty or forty miles we should infer from this fact that the farmers of north-carolina who labour under so much gi eater disadvantage for obtaining a quantity of stable manure ade quate to their wants would derive still greater benefits from the use of plaster of paris but a great part of our state is so far from the sea-ports and this article is so heavy that the expense of carriage must in most cases greatly diminish the per sent at a distance will be diseon fter the time has expired for which it paid tor unless the subscriber is known id ;
